Bikes: two blacks, a blue and a white.

Set an iPad on a barstool centered in front of you and watch youTube videos of great rides. You can do about half of famous climbs of the Tour that folks have recorded on their GoPro cameras. Or you can take a ride around Las Vegas, or Surrey England and much more. You might even find spin class video with excellent views. Anything not to be looking at the wall. I keep two short 2x8's stacked on the left, inside the frame of the Kreitlers for mount/dismount. Do think about sweat management, you'll make a puddle. Richard Simmons headband worthwhile, but remember to take it off before anyone sees you. Fan is critical. Tire pressure varies resistance. Have something to grab - I ride next to the basement stairs and can grab that railing. Even after a couple of winters, I still unexpectedly need it sometimes. Keep in mind that if you fall, you only go sideways - you have practically zero forward momentum.
